I have been offered a job in Bucharest with a salary of 1700 Euro a month with a yearly housing stipend of 2400.

Would you please advise on whether that will be enough to live on and save. What kind of housing and in what kind of area will I be able to afford with that? Also any hidden costs that I wouldn't think about that need to be considered?

Thanks

That's a great salary for Bucharest. I was offered $1100 dollars a month there some years ago. I said I'd take it if they changed the dollars to pounds but they never did, so I ended up in Saudi.

Real estate has shot up in Romania lately, but you've got plenty or money to have a good time and save.
